In this episode, I open up about my past cannabis use — the highs, the lows, and the inner work that helped me reshape my relationship with it. From personal stories to neuroscience and emotional healing, I explore what it means to choose growth over comfort. This is not about preaching — it’s about being honest, reflective, and real. Healing is never linear, but change is possible. Always.
